Talk about a headline, but that IS what Cosmopolis director David Cronenberg said to Robert Pattinson before filming a scene for the sexy thriller.

In an interview with Metro France, the 26-year-old Twilight star recalled the oh-so-direct moment on set. RPatz told the mag:

"Five minutes before we filmed, David told me, 'I want to see the bottom of your balls on the top of the frame.' At the moment, I reminded myself that I would do anything for him. So I went back to see him and told him that wouldn't happen."

As for how the director reacted, Pattinson adds, "He took it really well. At the start, it's a very bizarre scene that you won't see again in another movie, I promise."
